The word Reiki comes from 2 Japanese phrases that mean the energy of life and the transfer of the spirit. Once a secretive practice, it is currently becoming more popular among a variety of individuals throughout the world. In addition, the mystery surrounding it has become easier to understand. The Reiki Tampa residents pursue can increase their energy and restore balance to their bodies.

The practice involves the patient extracting energy from the hands of a reputable holistic therapist. However, the latter's hands are positioned over the body of the patient. This sets the treatment apart from other types of holistic healing therapies, as no physical contact is involved.

Even though its origins cannot be traced back to a particular time period or individual, Reiki is thought to be thousands of years old. There is evidence that it was practiced centuries ago in Tibet, and resurfaced in the nineteenth century in Japan. The methods used, however, have undergone numerous changes over the years. It has gained attention as a popular holistic practice among various patients in the Western world since the beginning of the 20th century.

The increase in popularity associated with the practice is due in part to the straightforward approach associated with the therapy. For instance, it is centered on wellness, harmony, and peace, the latter of which appeal to a broad range of cultures. This is perhaps why the practice has remained popular for thousands of years.

Currently, there are numerous forms of such therapy. The standard technique used in most practices in today's modern world involves assisting the human body to balance its own energy, and subsequently heal itself. Frequently referred to as the radiance technique, this method is by far the most popular among most practitioners.

Reiki masters generally use the same main techniques regardless of which practitioner a patient chooses to visit. Each professional, however, will have his or her own specific approach to the treatment. For this reason, asking questions is a wise course of action for prospective patients, and they should make sure they schedule their sessions only with a reputable and qualified practitioner.

Attunement is another form of Reiki, but is performed only by a master. It is the process of opening the palm, heart and crown, and linking the client to God, or a source of life energy. Although it is not a religion, attunement is said to be a spiritual experience. It is not learned, but transferred, and awakens the student to the powerful healing energy that resides in each human body. It is the belief of the practitioners that this presence must be acknowledged and nurtured to bring healing to oneself. As attunement energies are passed from the practitioner to the patient, the full healing technique is also transferred, raising the patient's overall internal energy and a sense of well-being.

There are numerous motives one may have for seeking such treatment, and individual results will vary significantly from one patient to another. However, one must also understand that no complementary or alternative procedure should be used in lieu of conventional medical care. No matter why a person may be seeking such therapy, the Reiki Tampa therapists provide is usually a positive experience for their patients.
